🤔 Mkhitaryan on the PSG-Inter Champions League final: We lost focus...

Henrikh Mkhitaryan spoke at the Festival of Sport, an event by La Gazzetta dello Sport, about the Champions League final.

Mkhitaryan: "Prima della finale di Champions la gente parlava più del fatto che Inzaghi potesse andare via che del fatto che eravamo in finale di Champions. Magari un po' ci ha disturbato. Tu pensi 'ma scusate, siamo in finale di Champions e parlate di altro?'" pic.twitter.com/My978ULRSS

This is what the Armenian said: "Before the Champions League final people talked more about the fact that Inzaghi could leave than about the fact that we were in the Champions League final. Maybe it distracted us a bit. You think, but sorry, we’re in the Champions League final and you’re talking about something else?".

It seems that the possible move of Inzaghi to Al Hilal may have distracted a team that lost 5–0 to PSG.

Even so, in recent days, Federico Pastorello, Simone Inzaghi’s agent, clarified that the possibility of Saudi football had existed for a long time for the coach, but that he did not make the decision until after the Champions League final.

What is clear is that the Italian’s departure has hurt Inter, even though Chivu hasn’t started badly at all.
